Signal can be a great tool for private messaging, but it’s at its best if you know how to use all the privacy options. Not all of these options are automatic or even immediately obvious; there are also some best practices that are helpful for participating in and leading group chats.

@dansup What would be the advantage of a #fediverse messenger over e.g. #Signal?

New reports suggest US authorities have investigated claims that Meta can bypass WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption to read private messages.
The allegations stem from a recent lawsuit involving whistleblowers, though Meta has dismissed the claims as categorically false. Security experts remain skeptical, noting that such a breach would be a mathematical impossibility if the protocol is truly end-to-end—but the investigation alone is raising fresh questions about big tech privacy.

Good point, "Signal Foundation president Meredith Whittaker said artificial intelligence agents embedded within operating systems are eroding the practical security guarantees of end-to-end encryption (E2EE)."
